Sky 4: Forthcoming – Original Vinyl LP Record
Sky 4: Forthcoming is the fourth studio album from Sky, the British instrumental supergroup formed by classical guitarist John Williams, bassist Herbie Flowers, keyboardist Francis Monkman, drummer Tristan Fry, and guitarist Kevin Peek. Released in 1983 on Ariola Records, Forthcoming showcases the ensemble at their most expansive — blending progressive rock, classical composition, and jazz-inflected textures into a seamless, cinematic whole.
The sleeve artwork is striking and atmospheric: the front features the five members bathed in ethereal light against a deep green gradient, while the rear presents an abstract cloudscape of luminous, shifting tones — both entirely in keeping with the album's contemplative mood.
